Clear dark blond beer, big aery white head, unstable, dissipates quickly, non adhesive. Aroma: bit yeasty, quite some coriander, orange peel, little honey, floral, bit sugary. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: some citrus, pretty floral, lots of orange peel, bit yeasty, sour grains. Aftertaste: little bitter, wheat, some honey, sweet, coriander, quite some orange peel again.

650 ml bottle. Pours a clear yellow gold with light bubbly head and lots of carbonation. Aromas of wheat, earth, apples, and citrus. Flavors of apples and pears, light toasted malts, grain, and light spice. Qutie a bit of carbonation but overall very nice.

Hazy, yellow coloured beer with a small white head. Fresh aroma of wheat. Flavour is wheaty, acidic an yeasty. A nice and well well balanced white beer. (Bottle 75cl)

Bottle. Poured clear yellow color with a medium frothy white head that mostly lasted with fair lacing. Moderate yeast sweet citrus and spice aroma. Medium body with a tingly smooth texture and soft carbonation. Medium citrus sweet flavor with a medium sweet finish of moderate duration. My expectations where just met.

Bevuta al Villaggio della Birra 2012 alla spina. Ottimo profilo aromatico complesso e buona base alcolica. Si percepisce una certa speziatura e si sentono le note agrumate/citriche del del curaçao. Deliziosa.

Light pale golden colour, white head. Aroma of malts, hops and spices. Sweet malty aroma, light buckwheat, light hops. Finish malts, light hops and light sweetness.
Nice brew.
